So you know how I was whining last night? Well now alongside the wrists, elbow, and knee, my back and every single muscle in my upper body is complaining. So let me whine at you some more, PPK ;)

I think it's time to ditch the toe clips and deal with walking around campus in unsexy shoes.

Do you mean toe clips as in bike shoes? I loooove my bike shoes, but they're city/mountain bike type clip shoes so the clip part isn't portruding. I *can* walk around in them but it's much easier to just carry an extra pair of shoes if I know I'll be somewhere a while. Work has a pair danskos that I switch in to.

My current pedals have these type clips. My bike back in Boston is clipless with recessed bike shoes that I really don't mind walking in, but they are sooo ugly. I go back and forth from campus for a couple hours at a time so it's not really worth carrying shoes. Maybe a compromise with combination platform/clipless pedals?

My dog is farting in her sleep and it smells SO bad! I had to light a candle, but the only ones I have right now are christmas scents. So now my room smells like farting christmas trees.

That's the worst!

I'm currently working on a newsletter for my desktop publishing class. I have a mug of coffee, and a bottle of port wine on my desk. I just almost accidentally grabbed the wine instead of the coffee. That would've made for an interesting final product...

Ahhh, I like my shoes, I think they're cute when they're not covered in road salt (yum). I actually have the combo but have so far used the platform side about three times in three months. heh.

This time of year is so filled with antsy feelings because I just LOVE giving gifts to my husband. I already have everything and I struggle all December every year with being so excited to give him his gifts, haha. I spend a lot of time getting him just the perfect things, usually ordered online from small indie shops, and it makes me SO happy to see him smile when he opens them. Also, it's his birthday on the 13th (his 31st!) and I got him some nice stuff for that, too. He never buys anything himself, so it's a great opportunity to make sure my boo has all the stuff he needs/wants.
